IVF/FET August/September 2019

Hello all

I couldn’t see a thread for August so I thought I’d start one.

I was lucky enough to get my beautiful daughter from our first ICSI attempt four years ago and now we are trying for number 2. I have a few frozen embies stored so I’m just slowly working my way through them all!

I had my first chemical last month and am current waiting for my period after having a second chemical this month too. If my HCG drops enough then I’ll transfer again in August.

Hi @amiracle4me I am sorry to hear about your two chemicals. Best of luck for your next cycle! Where are you cycling at?

I am having my first transfer on Saturday after doing a freeze all cycle at the end of last year. We had to postpone for a few reasons. I’m excited but trying to stay cautiously optimistic! Already dreading the TWW!

Hello.

I’m still technically a ‘little bit pregnant’ and I’m just waiting for my period so it can end. Once the HCG is below 5 i’ll know if I can transfer in August. Fingers crossed.

Jumping on board this thread. Hopefully will have a transfer this Saturday. it's my first FET, previously had two fresh transfers, 1 BFN last year and 1 CP a month ago. 2 in the freezer from the last stim.
I've been feeling weirdly optimistic this week- not sure why, I normally try and keep expectations as low and possible for these. Maybe a counter to how bad I was feeling a few weeks ago.
After the last fresh transfer didn't take, Doctor suggested she "wasn't against" transferring two this time around- up until this point she had been vehemently against doing that. Her reasoning was to avoid disappointment if the last one fails to thaw and we have to cancel on the day of transfer, but I couldn't help feeling like she thought the remaining 2 really have no shot- and hence no risk of multiples (the fresh one was a 4AA, the ones left are 3BB and a Cavitating Morula). Felt really low while I worked through deciding whether to do single or double, but have settled on SET and comfortable enough with that decision.
The cycle has been so low key so far- we are MFI, so trying a natural FET and so far progressed as expected. So much waiting until the stress level go up on Friday when they start defrosting. Argh!
Good luck to everyone cycling this month!

Hi Step2Three

Good luck for this cycle! Would be great to have a transfer day buddy if you end up transferring on Saturday

This will be my first transfer, we have 6 (5 day 5 and 1 day 6) in the freezer.

I'm jumping over from the June/July thread which I was a bit late for, but now there is this one.

I just had my first EPU yesterday from my first round of IVF.

Saturday morning scan and blood work were great 19 follicles, 9 were a good size I think 15mm and above. After EPU I was told 15 were empty (they flushed and flushed but nothing) I was shocked and devastated only having 4 eggs was such a huge drop so quickly.

I got the call this afternoon that 2 fertilized and we will be doing a day 3 transfer with the strongest embryo on Friday and letting the other one grow to 5 days 🤞for freezing.
